Passage 1 New Year's Eve Every December 31st, my family gathers to celebrate New Year's Eve. In my family, we start by preparing a meal. Then, we usually exchange small presents and later turn on the television to watch the fireworks and the giant ball drop in New York City's Time Square. My favorite part of the celebration is when everyone counts down from 10 to mark the New Year just before the time hits midnight. Passage 2 The Chinese New Year My family always looks forward to celebrating the Chinese New Year. In China, we celebrate the Spring Festival, which starts on the first day of the Chinese New Year. We set off fireworks on that day. Our celebration lasts for 15 days. On the final day, we celebrate the Lantern Festival, which includes parades and costumes.

Both passages discuss how costumes are an important part of celebrating. D. Both passages mention that family is an important part of the celebrations.
